ASU is not an easy program to get it. If you are in, I would say you need to go! It is worth it to get it all over and done with and have your BSN. There is not doubt it will be hard, and time consuming and some days and weeks your kids may get almost no time with you. But you are doing a great thing for your entire family. I am a mother of two and have been in school for two years and I have two to go still. Have you looked into Chamberlain? It is on I17 & Dunlap. They have a great BSN program and are accepting acclications now because they are new to AZ. If you got into ASU, you will get into Chamberlain also...the point is to get your degree, and preferably a BSN...in my opinion.

Check into Chamberlain college of Nursing. It is right next door to Appollo and they offer a 3 year BSN. IT is expensive, and difficult (as any good nursing program), but a great option. Now is the time to apply though because they are new to AZ and actually have openings. They have been in FL, MO, and IL for 25+ years though. Their accrediation falls under the Devry accrediation for now, so you are good there. I have heard nothing but BAD things about Apollo. Personally, I attending GCC and feel they have a great program, but the wait list is too long and I really wanted my BSN. I transfered to GCU. They have an even better program, probably the best in the Valley, but it is very hostile. You either pass or fail and the instructors don't back you up to much...they basically tell you there is a line of other students behind you that want this degree so suck it up or get out. The program is hard, and if you don't pass a ertain part of the class you are out of the program and you have to re-apply to get back in. That is something they won't tell you when you are researching. Chamberlain,s 3 year BSN is a great option. Just go in and speak with someone-forget trying to call the 800 number. ~Wifemom77
